Echo Dot

I ended up buying ours from the local priest. Still don’t understand why he had one when all the stores were out of stock for months on end.

Well yeah because they screwed up one of their main franchises. All they had to do was leave Budgie alone to make Halo games, but no.

Everyone knows developers only have one good game in them.

I literally have no idea what generation of console any of those names are from.

I can’t see streaming games being anything other than a niche market. It puts the burden onto the streamer, in order to be competitive they look after constantly be upgrading their offering, they will have to have multiple server centres around the world, they will always be beholden to crappy ISPs who just don’t upgrade their infrastructure.

With local hardware you shortcut all of that, upgrading of your hardware is done by the user so they’re not going to complain if it’s out of date, you don’t have to have any server centres, and the ISP issues either don’t matter for single player games that were massively reduced for multiplayer games, now they don’t actually have to send video over the connection. .

What are you talking about you can buy a PC for less than the price of a PS5 and it will be better than the PS5. The advantage of gaming consoles has always been that it’s plug and play. You just turn it on and there you go.

Sony aren’t going to create a revolutionary GPU that’s only available in the PS6. They might try and charge $1,000 for it but they will always be other options. Where do you think they get their components from? They don’t have their own fab.

Oh absolutely, but the problem is that when those advocacy groups call everyone anti-semitic for calling out war crimes, they lose all credibility.

Oh yes because they’ve done nothing to deserve the hate, totally innocent bunch of people.

Imagine how hard it must be for anti-Semitism advocacy groups right now, the amount of mental gymnastics they have to perform in order to continue to be the victim must leave them utterly exhausted. I imagine they can only manage one whiny tweet and then they have to take a week off.

I guarantee that Naughty Bunny makes sex toys.

The first, dominant element of the two marks, NAUGHTY, is identical,” Sony said. “The second elements, DOG and CAT, are highly similar in that both refer to house pets

That has to be the most flimsy lawsuit I’ve ever heard. Any lawyer that can win with that case is a freaking genius.

I swear to God Nintendo don’t play test their games anymore. It’s always something like this.

What’s an enormous brain he has, it’s amazing that it fits in his itty bitty head.

So living in the UK which has free healthcare I can tell everybody that it’s super easy to do this.

Obviously I don’t have a job so I can’t afford food, so I just starve myself until I nearly die, and then the NHS turn up and put me in one of those pokeball rehabilitation things and I’m good to go.

How does the white one look old-fashioned and yet is exact same design?

You know, maybe Vimes had a point.

This is what I don’t get about their plan to take over the US. It won’t work because it will cost everyone money, the people they are ultimately beholden to will lose out because of actions they chose to take.

As soon as the consequences become apparent interest in project 2025 is going to drop off a cliff.

the fascists == idiots trope needs to go bc that’s exactly what makes them dangerous.

That plan doesn’t work. It assumes that the rest of the world just sits back and takes their crap lying down which isn’t happening. They genuinely think they can just take over Greenland and nothing would happen. I don’t know if they’re intelligent or not, but they’re definitely delusional.

So is it their goal to turn the US into an irrelevant backwater or what?

So far they’ve introduced bills that diminish their own military force, decimated global trading relationships, now they’re trying to back out of the final commitments they have left. By the time 2030 rolls around no one will want to be president because they’ll have no power.

I don’t mind bees. It’s the ones that bite you for no reason at all that I can’t stand.
